The confederate flag is a symbol, so is the swastika. The North isn't without their problems, but that doesn't mean the South hasn't had an ugly history with race. And racial tension is still a problem here.

It is people that cause problems. Not a piece of cloth.
btw, I'm not arguing. Just discussing ![]() Guess we just have to agree to diagree. I never thought of Missouri as a southern state until Vanessa mentioned it to me. That was news to me. (still waiting for you justanothersally )Jon Finn let Vanessa know we need her ![]() _____ I'm just wondering what other southerners here think?? btw. we have alot of Black people going to our big church. One especially is a very good friend of mine. She sings in the choir.
I'm just saying that the flag is commonly associated with oppression (slavery, etc) and racism. That's why some people don't want them on government buildings and such as it is viewed as representation.
Missouri is considered a Southern state. I'm originally from Arkansas.

Big issue with the NFL.
I see no reason to think that Trump is a rascist because of his arguement about some of the NFL players and others kneeling. Not only Black players were involved but Whites also. So, why make this a Black issue. That is politics and a hatered for the conservative party period. The liberals should be ashamed of themselves. When will they ever get over they lost. I had no idea our taxes are paying for stadiums. Stupid of me. I know. If the players do not want to stand in respect for our country, they need to find another job. They need to stop getting paid all that money to play a game. They get waaaay too much money anyway!! See if they will kneel if their pay is reduced. I bet they won't. How arrogant!! Hillary, she needs to shut her damn mouth about this. Pres. Trump, please put her ass in jail like you promised!!!!

Here's what happened Hillary. You lost. Get over it.

the media is good at that
turning anything into a race issue whatever it takes to paint Trump as a racist I do not think he should have opened this Pandoras box was a minor issue until he blew it up |
